19Then you spoke in a vision to your faithful one, and said:
I have set the crown* on one who is mighty,
I have exalted one chosen from the people.
20I have found my servant David;
with my holy oil I have anointed him;
21my hand shall always remain with him;
my arm also shall strengthen him.
22The enemy shall not outwit him,
the wicked shall not humble him.
23I will crush his foes before him
and strike down those who hate him.
24My faithfulness and steadfast love shall be with him;
and in my name his horn shall be exalted.
25I will set his hand on the sea
and his right hand on the rivers.
26He shall cry to me, You are my Father,
my God, and the Rock of my salvation!
27I will make him the firstborn,
the highest of the kings of the earth.
28For-ever I will keep my steadfast love for him,
and my covenant with him will stand firm.
